In their words
- Condition: Long COVID
I, myself, have had serious brain fog issues and it’s been rough, but I’m starting to have days where things are almost normal-like.
In context ↗ - At worst: Mild
I had insomnia for weeks due to, what I can best describe as, myoclonic jerks when trying to rest. I had the internal vibrations but my limbs would spontaneously jerk and it prevented me from sleeping.
In context ↗ - Now: Somewhat better
I’m starting to have days where things are almost normal-like ... Hemp oil helped tremendously but I still have issues.

Summary
Beech 97585 developed long COVID with serious brain fog, internal vibrations and muscle jerks and spasms that caused weeks of insomnia. High-dose hemp oil and gummies were the only thing that helped, easing the jerks and spasms considerably, though occasional muscle jerks remained. By January 2022 there were days that felt almost normal; by August 2022 they still hadn't come off the hemp products, afraid to stop in case symptoms returned.

Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, in the order they describe; they don’t give enough times to place each step. Hover or tap a point. 2 steps say too little to place on the scale and are only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
